Privacy notice

This notice explains what happens to the information you send us through this website. It is a short working draft and the firm should review it before launch.

What we collect

When you send an enquiry we receive the name, company, email address, telephone number and message you type into the form, and the internet address your enquiry came from. This website sets one cookie, which keeps the enquiry form secure. It is not used for tracking or advertising.

Why we use it

We use your enquiry to reply to you and to decide whether the firm can act. We do not sell it or pass it to anyone for marketing.

Website records

So that we can understand how this website is used and keep it secure, we keep a record of visits to it. Each record holds the date and time, the pages seen, the internet address the visit came from, the approximate location (country and city) that address maps to, and the type of browser and device used. We do not set a cookie for this and we do not try to identify you from it. These records are kept for a limited period and then deleted automatically. To work out the approximate location of an internet address we use a third-party lookup service, which receives only the address.

How long we keep it

If you become a client, your enquiry joins your file. If you do not, we delete it once it is no longer needed.

Your rights

You can ask to see, correct or delete the information we hold about you by writing to info@blackwoodandvance.co.uk. In the United Kingdom you can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.
